It’s 1972. Two young singer-songwriters decide to join their guitars and their voices. Taking their name from a line in a Lawrence Ferlinghetti poem, Rex Fowler and Neal Shulman, become Aztec Two-Step and their debut album, fueled by the beat epic “The Persecution and Restoration of Dean Moriarty (On The Road),” becomes an FM radio and coffeehouse staple.
Forty years later, Fowler and Shulman are still at it, with harmonies that have grown richer and deeper over the course of four decades together. The duo (abetted by longtime bassist Fred Holman) hits The Eighth Step at Proctors to celebrate its new album, “Cause & Effect.”
